sorry all you resident wannabe draft gurus, but the YouTube guru yours truly has laid claim to this prospect's bragging rights... the heir apparent to OJ Mayo at USC... i don't wanna hear any bogus stragglers coming along later claiming they've been watching & jocking this kid since they were in JHS either... TOO LATE!!! you snooze you lose jabroni!

i say we draft either a SF who can shoot from the perimeter or a bigman who can block shots in the draft this year (DG or Randolph), then tank another season & unload whatever contracts we possibly can after next season (Jefferies/Zach/Curry/Jamal) & allow Q Rich & Turd's contracts to come off the books... if we're lucky we may end up w/someone like this:

STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON, ANOTHER CRAZY MUTHAF*CKA NAMED D-MAR:








Demar DeRozan
Birthday: 8/7/1989
NBA Postion: Shooting Guard
Class: HS Senior
Ht: 6-6
Wt: 210
College Team: USC
Hometown: Compton, CA
High School: Compton

NBA Comparison: Vince Carter
Strengths: An absolutely jaw dropping type of physical specimen … His explosiveness is on the elite level for the NBA … Already has a strong body and will only get stronger as his frame continues to fill out, so he'll be able to finish without any strength issues … His game has improved tremendously in the past year. He now has a package of offensive skills including the ability to create shots off the dribble as well as range out to college three … Has developed slick ball handling ability with a mean crossover, which he uses well to get by opponents to the basket or for setting up his outside j … His perimeter shot has become fairly consistent, and his scoring ability has significantly increased … Really excels on the break finishing with acrobatic dunks … Uses his strong body well to take the ball inside against weaker athletes … His basketball IQ has developed to where he has a good idea of when to drive, shoot or pass and takes what the defense gives him …

Weaknesses: Needs to become more consistent overall. Does not always play up to his abilities … Must gain experience and develop more of a killer instinct. He's competitive, but can go through the motions when he's not on his game … Has superstar potential, but must continue to work hard and not buy into his own hype to get there … His ability to set up teammates and passing game could show some improvement … Must learn to play with more intensity defensively … His outside shot has become reliable but his midrange game can still improve … His first steep is good, but not as quick as some of the NBA's top 2-guards.

Notes: Has verbally committed to the Trojans of USC.

i don't care if he did or didn't, he never posted a YouTube clip (at least i don't rememeber ever seeing one)... i plan on bumping this thread multiple times throughout the year... neither Derozan nor Jennings will ever be mentioned again on these forums without me citing these threads... so shall it be written... so shall it be done.

My post was so sensational, martin or andrew moved it to nba forum!

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.
